@maxfrequency.net hello! I love your writing but unfortunately Reeder can’t seem to parse the RSS feed very well. Every to big is brought in at once as if you published 1400+ posts at once and then every article lacks all content even when using the full text scraper. Weird!

I think a lot about this quote from Anaïs Nin’s diary from 1939-1944:

“America is in even greater danger because of its cult of toughness, its hatred of sensitivity, and someday it may have to pay a price for this, because atrophy of feeling creates criminals”.
